Over at YN@LJ, a poster links to Nitta-sensei's post here.

Nitta-sensei announces the upcoming publishing of the last chapter of Haru (in BBoy Gold - which probably means #8, the tankoubon #14 will be out in the fall 2009 although the date is not set yet) and apologises for her wrongdoings, the long wait and thanks the readers for their support and mails during her hard time. I am not sure whether this means that Nitta-sensei is back - as I read it, it seems as if she is allowed back only for this to finish Haru. There is some talk about all her manga being pulled, and of the delay of the next BLCD in the series. Maybe Geri can shed some light over my wonky translation?

ETA: I've gone over the info that seemed most important again and got it to something like "Essentially, at this point in time the intention is to end Haru o Daiteita drawing the last part (in exchange) for the long support recived from the reader-sama (who are able to) distinguishing between right and wrong. The full/ended work will come with apology and gratitude."

Sounds like this is the end, both of Haru and of Nitta's work.

OMG! I so don't want Haru to end!!! *wails*

Where did you hear the 130 from?

I hope she's really back... I still think we should recruit her. Authors of other mediums have found our shores sanctuaries before.

Because I saw all the pics and the ads they were supposed to be traced from, and I think there were around 130-150. A "helpful" person who thought the public should know put it all on the interwebs, just to be certain Nitta-sensei's career and reputation were irreversibly ruined. *rages*

Dear god.

...okay can we say that they were omages(sp)?

Perhaps we should campaign to get her back.

I don't see how come she lost her career when that one bitch who plagerized that wild rock mangaka got off scot free and got to keep her manga series but the original mangaka lost hers. That was more blantant a stealing then this and EVERYONE knows she did it.

It's gotta be because of the BL content. It has to be.

This is discrimination(sp).

I think sending letters to the publishers continuously actually makes an impression. One of our first posts here is the addresses to the various companies, so on with the writing! I usually send a letter when I remember to, and a few crazy gifts for Nitta-sensei too. :D

And I think the BL thing might be a smaller factor - mostly because it is not something one talks about in Jp, reading BL manga = social suicide.

You know...the Japanese allow gays in their armies...

And yet in other ways they discrimiante...such a complex country.

So should we bombard just the Japanese publishers or add the english ones as well?

Postcards...hmm small, able to covey our messages in pretty terms.

I wonder how many we can get on our postcard crusade?

OMG!!!! I WAS INFURIATED WITH THAT INCIDENT WHEN IT HAPPENED TOO!!!!! But that particular knock-off of Wild Rock was done by a mangaka whose parents had strong authority in the field (for whatever cause I have no clue). But I definitely agree that Nitta sensei has been treated disporportionally harsh...
